This study was conducted in Hort. Dept., Fac. Agric., Minia Univ. in the two successive seasons of 2015 and 2016 on Moringa to study the effect of cutting heights (10, 20, 30 and 40 cm) and fertilization on yield productivity and chemical constituents of the plants.
Data indicated that cut plant at 10 cm was superior than other treatments on increasing branch numbers, fresh and dry weights/plant/cut and total yield/plant/season, as well as, total carbohydrates, protein and vit. C %. All used six fertilization treatments significantly increased all vegetative growth parameters and chemical constituents as compared with control. The best treatments were NPK (100 %) and bio. + 75 % NPK.
It could be recommended to cut Moringa oleifera at 10 cm above soil surface and fertilizing plants with bio. + 75 % NPK dose to obtain a good production biomass and high quality.
